Hey, you! Yeah YOU!
How come you haven't registered? Have you read about our new blue star program? We are donating $10 of each blue star subscription to the Blue Ribbon Coalition to ensure that we will have trails to recreate on for years to come.
Our blue star comes with all the benefits of a red star such as 10 second searching, blue/red star member only giveaways, access to the private blue/red star member forums, etc.

My friend has a 2001 Dodge 1500. We mounted a Cobra 29 LTD in his truck with a 3 foot Firestik in the bed. Our only problem is the ground... I know to ground off the mount since its top loaded. I just don't know where to run the ground wire to or what gauge wire to run. HELP

I've got a Cobra 19 in my ZJ, I actually just wired it today. I mounted it, along with some RG-58 (iirc) coax, a big-rig mirror mount bracket, and until yesterday, a 4' fiberglass stick a month or so ago.

Yesterday I finally hit up a radio shop and bought the stainless steel 102" whip I wanted. Before I drag the SWR meter out, I need to know:
I mounted the antenna bracket on my stock roof rack, which is metal, but the ends are plastic. I need to run a ground wire from the antenna bracket to the roof (or something), correct?
